معرفی
Professor MATSUMOTO Jun at Waseda University's Faculty of Human Sciences is a leading atmospheric chemist with a Ph.D. from the University of Tokyo. His research focuses on environmental dynamic analysis, particularly atmospheric chemistry of nitrogen oxides, photochemical oxidants, and secondary organic aerosol formation mechanisms.
- Developed advanced measurement systems for reactive nitrogen species (NOy, NOz) using laser-induced fluorescence and cavity attenuated phase shift spectroscopy
- Innovator in real-time analysis of biogenic volatile organic compounds through ozone reactivity methods
- Recipient of multiple Japan Society for Atmospheric Environment awards for his work on ozone-vegetation interactions and nitrate radical chemistry
- Contributed to understanding lightning-induced nitrogen oxides through Mount Fuji observations
His 15 most recent publications (2016-2024) demonstrate consistent focus on:
- Atmospheric oxidation processes using LIF and REMPI techniques
- NOx and VOC interactions in urban and forest environments
- Instrument development for sub-ppb level pollutant detection
- Photochemical modeling validation through field measurements
Award highlights include:
- 2020: Waseda Research Award
- 2014, 2011, 2008, 2007, 2006: Japan Society for Atmospheric Environment Paper Awards
- 2008: 69th Symposium on Analytical Chemistry Young Poster Award
He has served on various committees including the Society of Automotive Engineers of Japan and Japan Association for Atmospheric Environment editorial committee. His work combines field observations, laboratory experiments, and chemical transport modeling to address fundamental atmospheric chemistry questions.
